Music Crew

Every student at Warren Wilson College works.
What work crew will you choose?

The Music Crew supports the WWC music program, especially with its performances and concerts. You’ll help promote music program events on social media and around campus, organize student concerts and other music activities, and record performances for the music program’s YouTube page. You will also help tutor your peers in music theory and other music classes, and manage instrument lending for students in introductory instrument classes and individual lessons.

Through work that acknowledges and promotes DEI initiatives within music programming, celebrates diverse musical traditions, and supports students with various musical backgrounds and identities, you’ll help advance the music program’s ultimate goal to connect people—through music—to one another.

Why Work Crews?

Part of your work experience is reflection, helping ensure that you achieve both your own educational goals as well as our Common Learning Outcomes. These distinguish our Work Program, giving it focus and relevancy that set it apart from a federal work-study or your average part-time job.  Each crew in the Work Program identifies crew-specific goals as well. These outline skills and abilities your supervisor will teach you during the semester. 

Our Common Learning Outcomes

  • Professionalism & Work Ethic: accountability, effective work habits, punctuality, dependability, time management, integrity, and commitment to the well-being of the community.

  • Communication: the ability to convey and receive information effectively with intentionality, honesty, and confidence in both speech and writing.
